To Guard Against RRfieumatism

To guard against rheumatism, many Witches of the past performed the following herbal spells:

Take an elder twig and knot it thrice. Enchant it by visualization and spoken spell, and then carry it in your pocket. Elder has long been held to be an effective charm against rheumatism.

A pocketful of nutmeg or horse chestnut (also known as buckeye) is also believed to do the trick!

Another simple herbal spell to guard against rheumatism calls for the leaves of a goat's rue plant to be gathered at dawn on the day of the Summer Solstice and then placed inside one's shoes prior to putting them on.

Practitioners of folk magick have long used the potato to cure, as well as to prevent, a variety of illnesses. Carry in your pocket a potato inscribed with a pentagram to protect yourself against rheumatism, warts, gout, toothaches, and the common cold.
